The event will be packed with a range of carnival-style games such as guess the pumpkin cake weight, Splat the Spider and Name the Cuddle Cat, with all entries going towards the work that the team at Hug on a Tray provides.
Adding to the festive atmosphere, the opticians will be dressed for the Halloween spirit, with some members baking a range of festive treats to be enjoyed throughout the day.

Lisa Grimes, clinical technician at Specsavers Otley, says: ‘Halloween is all about making memories and getting together with your community. That’s why we’re thrilled to invite the people of Otley to our store to enjoy a day full of fun, laughter, and a few sweet treats – all for a fantastic cause.
‘We chose Hug on a Tray because it’s a charity we’ve held close to our hearts since it began. The service Lesley and the team provide patients is essential to making their time in hospital as comfortable as possible.
